American Hasi: A documentary film & Comedy Tour In India

American Hasi (Hindi for "American laughter") follows stand-up comedian Tushar Singh on a 35-day comedy tour across six cities in India, hoping to gain both a clearer sense of cultural identity and new material, without overtly offending audiences. As a second-generation immigrant raised in a traditional Indian household in the American Deep South, Tushar developed an arsenal of jokes and stories to deal with his often conflicting experiences. Now, American Hasi turns the tables, taking the politically incorrect, fully Americanized performer (and his mom!) to his parents' homeland for an unpredictable tale of comedic growth and self-exploration.
